した所謂前払い方式、及びカードによって自動販売機を
利用すると、自動販売機内に利用金額が記憶され、予め
定められた期間ごとに自動販売機内に記憶されているカ
ードごとの累積利用金額をカード保持者に支払わせる所
謂後払い方式がある。A so-called prepayment method in which a card on which monetary information corresponding to the purchase price is written using magnetic information or other means is purchased in advance with cash, and the amount written on the card decreases each time a vending machine is used; When a vending machine is used with a card, the amount used is stored in the vending machine, and the card holder is required to pay the accumulated usage amount for each card stored in the vending machine at predetermined intervals in a so-called deferred payment method. There is.
(発明が解決しようとする問題点) ところで、カード利用による自動販売機の場合。(Problem to be solved by the invention) By the way, in the case of vending machines that use cards.
偽造カード、盗難カード等による不正利用等に対する防

殊カードが用いられている。In the case of the above-mentioned prepayment method, since cash is received in advance, there is no possibility that the usage amount cannot be recovered, but there is a possibility of fraudulent usage by falsifying the amount information written on the card. For this reason, in the prepayment system, the shape of the card is usually broken, such as by punching a hole, depending on the amount spent. Therefore, special cards are generally used in advance payment systems.
ところが、前払い方式はセキュリティ対策上有利である
が、カードに書き込まれた金額情報がゼロになると、カ
ード自体が廃棄されるため、カードコストが高くなると
いう問題点がある。However, although the prepayment method is advantageous in terms of security, it has the problem that when the amount information written on the card reaches zero, the card itself is discarded, which increases the card cost.
一方、上述の後払い方式においては8発行されたカード
は長期間使用されるため、耐久性のあるグラスチック製
の標準カードが用いられている。On the other hand, in the above-mentioned deferred payment system, since the eight issued cards are used for a long period of time, a durable standard card made of glass stick is used.

ス)1追加、更新しなければならない。For example, one possible method is to store a list of fraudulent cards in the vending machine and check for fraudulent cards.
In general, the amount of this list of fraudulent cards is enormous, and therefore there is a problem that storage devices built into vending machines become expensive. On the other hand, since the list of fraudulent cards is frequently added and updated, automatic processing is performed each time. One fraudulent card must be added and updated for each vending machine.
